How Awesome is Teaching!

The really cool thing about educational technology courses, to me, is the amount of content that can be taught/learned in each lesson. For example, students in ED 510 just completed a module covering digital presentations. In this module, not only did they learn to create a presentation, they learned so much more - 

For example, in the Digital Storytelling Presentation featured below, the student learned:

1. Digital design best practices (how to effectively design a presentation)
2. Presentation best practices (how to effectively deliver the presentation - voice, tone, engaging the audience)
3. How to use Prezi
4. How to use lecture capture software
5. How to upload a presentation to server space
6. How to generate a public URL for publishing the video
   
7. Creativity - in the design process
   
8. Information processing skills - this particular student learned about teaching/learning using “digital storytelling”
1. How to gather information
2. Organize the information
3. Present findings
